Console Resource Editor

Add or Replace an Embedded XML Manifest File

If you have problems with automatically injected manifest resources in your programs or installers, and would like to get rid of this problem once and for all, RTC is the solution.

Resource Tuner Console provides many ways of editing Application Manifest entries for EXE, DLL and CPL (Control Panel Applets) files. You can specify whether to add a new Manifest resource, or replace an existing Manifest resource with a manifest from a .xml file.

For example, you have a Wise InstallBuilder installer that you want to add a manifest to for Vista User Access Control. Let's get started with the Manifest automation.

1. Write a simple script code (see below)
2. Run Resource Tuner Console
3. You are done.

To see the changes made, we recommend using Resource Tuner GUI, a visual resource editor.

The Script Used

A description of the RTC script format and sample scripts can be found in the RTC Scripting Language Reference within the Resource Tuner Console package.

The following example uses the ResourcesProxy.ChangeManifest procedure with the EditMode argument set to CREATE_IF_NOT_EXIST. This script is based on the Edit XML Manifest sample script. It may be helpful to use this example as a template for your own scripts.


'Edit XML Manifest
PEFileProxy.PostDebugString "Adding/editing XML Manifest..."
ResourcesProxy.ChangeManifest EXE_MANIFEST, LangID, CREATE_IF_NOT_EXIST, "..\demo\src\exe_manifest.xml"
